Two voting advocacy groups are sponsoring a dance as early voting begins during the third week of the month to drive awareness about the importance of casting ballots in elections.
The free Dance Workshop for EveryBody will be held Saturday, Oct. 19, from 1:30 to 2:30 p.m. at the Mohr Community Center.
The event is nonpartisan. It is sponsored by a Forest Park citizen.
The class will be led by local BeMoved (R) Dance instructor Jennifer Edgcomb.
Participants are invited to attend to get a little exercise and to exercise their right to vote, organizers said.
Polling location information will be available on site, as well.
The class is designed for all levels and for those 18 and older.
The community center is located at 7640 Jackson Blvd.
